Thelegacy user Event Types in the camera will continue to work but will not be visible in the user interface of the camera. The EventTypes need to be converted to Action rules to become visible in the user interface.To convert Event Types to Action Rules go to Events > Action Rules and click Convert.CautionThis is not recommended when using a VMS based on the old Event Management System.Setting Up an Action RuleAn action rule defines the conditions that must be met for the product to perform an action, for example record video or send emailnotifications. If multiple conditions are defined, all must be met to trigger the action.The following example describes how to set up an action rule to record video to a network share if there is movement in thecamera’s field of view.Set up motion detection and add a network share:1. Go to Detectors > Motion Detection and configure a motion detection window, see page 232. Go to System Options > Storage and set up the network share, see page 38.Set up the action rule:1. Go to Events > Action Rules and click Add.2. Select Enable rule and enter a descriptive name for the rule.3. Select Detectors from the Trigger drop-down list.4.

Select Network Share from the Storage drop-down list.To add additional criteria, select the Additional conditions option and add additional triggers. To prevent an action from beingtriggered repeatedly, a Wait at least time can be set. Enter the time in hours, minutes and seconds, during which the triggershould be ignored before the action rule can be activated again.The recording Duration of some actions can be set to include time immediately before and after the event.
